Reborn fashion designer

Chapter 836: 4000 million pounds, will it make any difference?
"Yes, of course you have to be my advisor. You are the only one I can trust."

I was about to say the word "friend".

Xiangyang quickly took it back.

Who among those present here is not his friend from all over the world?
If this were said.

Wouldn't that offend everyone here?
"I trust you more than those British lawyers that Bi Shaffer hired for me."

"Hmm," Macron groaned.

That's a really nice thing to say.

But before he could even laugh, someone came to spoil his show.

Alisher Usmanov smiled with narrowed eyes and said, "Xiang, if you need help with legal matters, Abu and I can always help you hire the best team."

"Well, I have rich experience in buying properties in London." Abramovich, who was in a good mood, also offered an assist.

"Thank you, Macron's help is enough."

Xiang Yang laughed quickly and tried to change the subject: "But to be honest, it seems that we have no choice but to buy this castle now."

After he finished speaking, several people nodded in agreement.

Even they rolled their eyes at Xiangyang.

Who are you criticizing?

Who here can't afford 400 million pounds?
Macron: “.”

But if you ask whether "afternoon tea" has something to do with this property, that's for sure.

Spending 400 million pounds for a meal of tea seemed worth it to them.

Although, this afternoon tea was more hype than reality, as the players in the club could only shake hands with Elizabeth and say hello at best.

But it doesn't mean that everyone who spends 400 million pounds can enjoy such treatment.

To put it bluntly, the invitation to the club was just a cover, and the one who was actually invited was Xiangyang.

As for why he was invited.

Just look at the later actor of Downton Abbey, Jim Carter, who played Charles Carson, the Crawley family butler.

This actor, who is basically unknown internationally, was awarded the highest honor of the British Empire for his special contribution to theatrical works.

It is not surprising to those who know the industry that a designer like Xiangyang, who not only graduated from a British design school but was also deeply involved in promoting British culture on a global scale, is valued.

This medal is of the same nature as the French Cultural Medal.

There are many actors, directors and singers who have received this honor.

Stars like Adele, Ed Sheeran, Nolan, Eddie Redmayne, Kelly and many more have won it.

Of course, designers in the fashion industry are no exception.

Norman, the romantic master of haute couture, Hedi Yurman, who founded the British luxury brand, Paul Smith who can't take his eyes off the color pink, and Stella McCartney, the founder of the fashion brand of the same name, have all received medals awarded by members of the royal family.

Who is the person who allows people around the world to have a deeper understanding of British fashion culture through film and television works?
Anna Wintour is definitely one of them.

But Xiangyang’s contribution should not be underestimated.

Moreover, as a Chinese, he had just presided over the acquisition of Liverpool and then immediately purchased real estate on the Isle of Man, a royal reserve.

It is worth it to win them over.

If it weren't for the fact that his contribution to cultural communication is not particularly outstanding, it would not be too surprising to add him to the list of people to be awarded honors next year.

Anyway, this medal is divided into five levels from MBE to GBE.

"Haha, even if she gives it to me, I don't want it." At the dinner table, Xiangyang and the others were also talking about the medal.

Because according to convention, the list of medals of honor is announced on the Queen’s birthday and New Year every year.

Twice a year.

Each awardee
As many as thousands.

Because whether it is the Commander's Medal or the Officer's Medal or Member's Medal, they are all of the lowest level.

Only the Knight Grand Cross of the Order of the British Empire (GBE) and the Knight Commander of the Order of the British Empire (KBE/DBE) are rare items.

The other three, even if you get them, you are not granted the title of knight, so what is the point of getting them. Moreover, even if foreigners get the title representing the title of knight, they cannot add Sir or Dame in front of their names.

Therefore, this kind of honor does not have much practical significance to Xiangyang.

Took it.

Liverpool fans will scold him if they should.

Wearing it, not to mention other things, just the charity work he has to participate in in the UK every year is too much for him to accept.

He sees nothing wrong in doing more charity work in Europe for the sake of brand marketing.

But paying out of your own pocket to support the British?

Xiangyang just laughed when he thought about it.

"I think if there is a chance, you can go for it," Macron suggested.

This medal is different whether you have it or not.

From ZZ's perspective.

"I'll wait for you to award me a medal in the future." Xiangyang made a joke, but he had a little idea in his mind.
"Haha, good. If France wants to give you this kind of honor, I will definitely apply for it."

Macron responded with a laugh.

Apart from anything else, what Xiangyang says sometimes makes people feel particularly comfortable.

Abu, who was sitting next to him, glanced at Xiangyang, then glanced at Macron inconspicuously, and then pursed his lips habitually.

As the person who had the most contact with Xiang Yang among the people present, he felt that there was something else behind his words. At least, that's what his intuition told him.

Although he is in the UK, he knows a lot about France.

How many consultants does Lao Sa have?

The answer is 117.

Each consultant's salary is 4 euros.

However, such a "low-income" economic consultant is highly valued by Xiangyang.

If nothing happens here, then he would have dealt with the emperor in vain.

the other side.
Buckingham Palace official website announcement.

Elizabeth's invitation to Liverpool Club was scheduled for December 12, which was right after Christmas and in the middle of the New Year (New Year's Day).

It’s not just people on Hong Kong Island who are busy with this announcement.

In England, the BBC is making urgent plans. They were invited to make a documentary for Arsenal and shot precious pictures as an invited media.

This time, it's no exception.

The board of directors of the school where Xiangyang originally studied abroad was holding an urgent meeting
Similarly, Standard Chartered Bank has not been idle.

Edwards responded to Xiangyang's meaning as soon as possible while they were waiting for the results.

Ok.

Unlike clubs in lower leagues that are eager to please their sponsors, Premier League giants have a big say in sponsorship.

But Liverpool is undoubtedly the most special one in the Premier League.

He really has no shortage of sponsorship.

Well.
Although the sponsorship fees for chest advertising are important to the operation of the club, they are also a manifestation of success in commercial expansion.

But if anyone is willing to speak up, it will never be Standard Chartered Bank’s turn.

This fact, after Edwards made it clear that everything would be discussed after the New Year holiday, Standard Chartered Bank felt that when would the money be given to such a humble level.

Could it be that they have reached an agreement with Qatar Airways?
In the view of Standard Chartered Bank, their biggest competitors are not HYS and Hermes, the financial backers behind Liverpool.

But at PSG's owner.

While things are bustling in the UK, the football scene in Paris is equally turbulent.

It is said that during the Christmas days, a major news will be revealed.

Many people are speculating what it is.

But after thinking about it, in the French football league, only Paris Saint-Germain has the strength to shake up the focus that is currently firmly controlled by the Premier League, La Liga and Bundesliga.

But it is precisely because of competitors like HYS and Hermes in front and Qatar Airways in the back that Standard Chartered Bank is unwilling to give up easily.

"£4000 million."

After much discussion, the board of directors of Standard Chartered Bank came up with the final plan.

A sponsorship of 4000 million pounds per year, signed for 4 years.

A total of £1.6 million.

In order to show sincerity as much as possible, the board of directors of Standard Chartered Bank also decided that as long as Liverpool could include a priority renewal clause in the final agreement.

They can pay the sponsorship fee to Liverpool in one lump sum.

Or use this sponsorship agreement as security to provide Liverpool with an interest-free loan of £2 million.

If such a sponsorship plan still cannot impress Liverpool, then to be honest, there is no need to discuss it further.

After all, before this, apart from the Paris Saint-Germain chest advertisement.

The most expensive chest advertising sponsorship that has been exposed is the five-year sponsorship agreement with a total amount of 1.7 million euros that the Qatar Foundation and Barcelona Club are about to sign.

Of course, this sponsorship was not realized in the end due to unexpected circumstances.

But it is of great reference value.

What level is Barcelona, ​​what level is Liverpool?
One was previously at the height of its powers in both the Champions League and its domestic league, while the other was facing a rebuilding process.
"Since everyone agrees with this plan, let's go to Liverpool tomorrow."

Do it sooner rather than later.

If we sign this agreement tomorrow, it will just be a good opportunity to take advantage of this hot topic of public opinion during afternoon tea.

What level is this hot spot? What level is this hot spot in which many Barcelona players are investigated for tax evasion?

Edwards looked embarrassed after answering the phone.

How do I report this?

The Boss just rushed to London and he has to rush back tomorrow.

The key point is that the chairman of the board and the CEO came to the club in person to negotiate, and he, as the sports director, had no say in the matter.

or
"Shaffer, if the Boss can't get away and come back, can you represent him?" Faced with this difficult problem, Edwards could only count on Bi Shaffer to give him a hand at the critical moment.

Hearing this, Bi Shafer was confused at first.

After I figured it out, I laughed at myself.

Can she represent Xiangyang?

Bi Shaver really wanted to tell Edwards the truth.

In this world, there is only one woman whose words can make Xiangyang say without hesitation that this is what he means.

That is.
